Multiple Drawing Items

The Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Land and Maritime is conducting a market research phase for a long-term contract to procure five National Stock Numbers (NSNs) consisting of motor vehicle components, including a disk clutch, frame section, road wheel hub assembly, ejector cartridge retainer, and access cover. Potential manufacturers and non-manufacturers interested in supplying these items must meet rigorous qualification requirements, including compliance with Qualified Products List (QPL) and Qualified Manufacturers List (QML) standards, US/Canada Joint Certification Program (JCP) certification, and export control compliance under ITAR and EAR regulations. The contract will be evaluated on best value principles, with DLA exploring the possibility of consolidating all five NSNs into a single solicitation or awarding multiple contracts based on independent evaluation of each item. Key requirements include completion of mandatory export-control technical data training and the DLA Export-Controlled Technical Data Questionnaire, with access to drawing specifications available through the c-Folders website. Interested offerors must submit completed market research questionnaires and spreadsheets to Marshall Lynn at marshall.lynn@dla.mil by December 18th, 2025, providing detailed information on manufacturing capabilities, pricing structures, delivery capabilities, and small business status.

This pre-solicitation notice contains no set-aside designation and does not identify any current contractors or incumbents. The contract structure will likely involve an Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) or Long-Term Contract (LTC) with a base period of one to three years and potential option years totaling two to four additional years, though no specific award value or budget range is disclosed in this preliminary market research phase. The solicitation will be synopsized separately at a later date, with formal proposals to follow the completion of this market research period. Interested suppliers should note that the actual solicitation will be announced through standard federal procurement channels after DLA evaluates responses to this market survey. The final contract may incorporate pre-negotiated pricing, economic price adjustments for raw material cost fluctuations, and consideration for delivery capabilities, with DLA utilizing its automated procurement system to generate delivery orders under the resulting contract.
